The Second Pet Adam

Agility: 20

Rank: Black Iron High Rank.

Enhanced lizardman of Black Iron High Rank.

The golden monkey named Ben, the lizardman named Adam, no problem!

"Hahaha, excellent, excellent!"

Seeing the attribute panel of this lizardman, Bruce's mood was very pleasant.

Among the monsters that have appeared so far, Black Iron High Rank monsters are already quite powerful.

With over twenty strength and agility, although much inferior to Ben, it is more than twice that of an adult male.

And now there are two Black Iron High Rank monsters!

Bruce can completely let them take turns to eat and recover stamina.

Coupled with Ignacio and Cedric's flanking, and the firepower suppression of Bruce's crossbow.

The scattered monsters in the hotel have no resistance at all.

Even if three to five come at the same time, Bruce can rely on them to attract firepower and then switch to the Andúril sword to annihilate them all unharmed.

Monsters below Intermediate rank?

"Dead!"

One hit, they can't resist.

High-rank lizards?

"Goodbye!"

Directly mass-killed, after killing, put the bodies aside.

The well-fed high-rank mantises? Give them an arrow first!

"Come on, my little ones!"

Three people and two monsters passed through the levels like this, and Andúril sword continuously absorbed energy.

[Weapon Rank: Bronze (Energy value 71/100)]

[Weapon Rank: Bronze (Energy value 79/100)]

[Weapon Rank: Bronze (Energy value 99/100)]

[Weapon Rank: Bronze (Energy value 100/100)]

[Congratulations, your weapon rank has increased!][Weapon Rank: Silver (Energy value 0/1000)]

As the familiar golden rune flashed across the blade of Andúril sword.

The original bronze-colored Andúril sword slowly turned into silver.The silver color wasn't as bright as real silver, and with the special grooves on the hilt and blade, it wasn't as dazzling as imagined.

But after this sword became Silver Rank, Bruce seemed to feel a special energy contained within the blade?

"Wow, boss, you have quite a few treasures on you."

Ignacio's voice interrupted Bruce's thoughts.

He didn't know what Bruce got in the secret realm.

But just what he saw with his naked eye!

There's a storage ring, a scroll to control monsters, and this exceptionally sharp Andúril sword.

Especially this sword, it's simply a killing tool.

You know!

Although the Dark Scroll obtained just now in the secret realm is powerful and can help Bruce enslave monsters.

But the damage inflicted by enslaved monsters is not as direct!

It can be said that its role is more about attracting monsters and resisting them rather than killing them.

And this sword is the most powerful weapon in Bruce's hands.

Killing monsters is really as easy as cutting melons and vegetables, it doesn't take much effort at all.

"Heh, you'll have yours in the future too."

Bruce looked at Ignacio and smiled meaningfully.

Ignacio's ability is indeed not weak, but his betrayal rate is a bit high!

60%.

So, if Bruce wants to recruit this guy for his own use, he needs to use some means.

"Is that so?"

Hearing Bruce's words, Ignacio awkwardly smiled.

And at that moment, a mid-rank lizardman emerged from the side corridor.

Ben and Adam were pounding on a zombie.

To test the power of the sword, Bruce rushed towards it directly.

Swish!

A flick from above!

"Wow!!"

"So...so strong!"

Seeing Bruce's sword strike, Ignacio and Cedric were both dumbfounded.

Because the mid-rank lizardman was split directly in half from the middle of its body by the strike?You know, that was a mid-rank lizardman, right?

Even though Bruce attacked from the weak spot in the abdomen, but this is splitting it in half, not just tearing the belly.

In other words, the thick scales on its back also served as a defense.

But it was still cut in half by Bruce's sword?

And it was a vertical cut, not a horizontal slash...

"Young Master Bruce, how much force did you use exactly??" Cedric couldn't help but quip!

At this point, everyone was running low on stamina.

When killing monsters, shouldn't you use the most energy-saving method?

Anyway, with two monsters in front taking the lead, they weren't in much danger.

Hearing Cedric's words, Bruce's expression was strange as he said, "If I said I didn't use much force, would you believe me??"

This sword is really too powerful.

When it was Black Iron Rank, cutting the back of a low-rank lizardman would encounter some resistance.

Sometimes it took two strikes to break through.

When it was Bronze Rank, although there was no resistance, Bruce still needed to exert some force to wield it effortlessly.

And cutting the sickle of a sickle mantis required even more strength.

But now?

Not only was cutting monsters effortless, but it seemed like the blade wasn't getting bloodied anymore??

Even the flesh and brain matter of monsters or zombies couldn't stain the blade?

Bruce looked at the pristine, shiny Andúril sword, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

"Is this what they call the legendary 'bloodless sword'??"

With the Andúril sword upgraded to Silver Rank!

Bruce's journey ahead became even smoother.

And not only that, a few minutes later.

Squeak!

Ben's excited voice echoed in everyone's ears again.

Instinctively, the three looked towards the sound.

At this moment, this monkey was bouncing around excitedly on the ground.

Everyone could clearly feel the energy fluctuations emanating from it.

"What the heck is going on?""It should be evolving!"

"What? Evolving?"

"Wow, can it still be played like this??"

With Ignacio's exclamation, Ben began to visibly change at the speed of Bruce and the others' naked eyes.

First, it shrank a bit in size, but its body became much stronger than before.

Next, its teeth sharpened, and its fingers thickened.

Finally, the black patterns under the golden fur on its back directly turned bronze.

A mid-rank zombie attacked.

Bang!

Ben smashed its head with a punch.

The black blood mixed with flesh turned into a beautiful arc, spraying onto the nearby wall.

Yes!

Ben, who was about to evolve, successfully advanced to the Bronze Rank Monkey King after eating the brains of a dozen or so monsters!

With Bruce being Black Iron High Rank, Ben being Bronze Rank Monkey King, plus a Silver Rank Andúril sword,

With Bruce constantly improving his personal strength,

In less than an hour, everyone cleaned up the monsters on the first and second floors of the Rhine Hotel.

As time passed, the monsters in the Rhine Hotel decreased one by one.

Bruce decisively went back to get Cynthia.

After Cynthia healed Cedric in the secret realm, she had been in a state of exhaustion.

But returning to the hotel and finishing the remaining food and water, her stamina gradually recovered.

Although she still couldn't heal people, walking normally and sensing whether there were nuclei in the bodies of the dead were no problem.

So...

[Ding, you have recovered a large amount of stamina.]

[Ding, you have strengthened your body, enhancement results: +2 Vitality, +1 Strength, +1 Agility!]

Due to the short time since the apocalypse began.

The monsters that had chased into the first floor before, plus those on the second floor.

Except for the high-rank lizard enslaved by Bruce, there were only five Black Iron High Rank monsters in total.

Out of the five monster corpses, only one nucleus was found.
